What is a Plant Talk?

Plant Talks are informal educational sessions hosted after weekly volunteer sessions on Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday. We bring in speakers to cover topics ranging from horticulture, ecology, insects, and diseases. All are welcome to join, even if you are not a volunteer! If you are interested in volunteering before a Plant Talk, please reach out to Volunteer Manager Anna Williamson at williamson.596@osu.edu
